1. ==> Former USAID Diplomat: What the U.S. Needs in These Divisive Times

President Trump fired thousands of employees with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) on the advice of the Depart¬ment of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk. Retired American diplomat Danielle Reiff served with USAID for 20 years and believes this was a big mistake. She’ll clear up the misconceptions about the agency and explain what it actually did as well as why it was so vital to America’s “soft” international political power. Beyond that, Reiff is a self-described peacebuilder, dedicated to building consensus-based self-governance through dialogue, collaboration, information resilience, and unity in diversity. In addition to her service as a diplomat, Reiff is also a violence prevention expert and the founder of the Peacebuilders Initiative, a group created to inspire and support citizens to come together across historic divides. Ask her: How did your experience at USAID prepare you for becoming a peacebuilder? How do you propose bridging the gaps that divide this country?

2. ==> Why Are We Attacking Science?

An analysis from public health experts suggest that––more than simply tax cuts, ending regulatory oversight of corporations, or optimizing the privatization of government services––the undermining and destruction of public health expertise is part of the larger culture war against universities, public schools, independent media, and other sources of civil society power. Joseph Feinglass is a researcher at Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine.  He says, “The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have already been cut by 40 percent––everything from the Epidemic Intelligence Service to black lung clinic screenings. What is shocking me, as a researcher, is that there is data for researchers that is provided by the CDC that is gone.” He says the war on science and scientific expertise is also reflected in cuts to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), “A lot of what the NIH does is under threat. GLP-1s, statins, drugs for dementia and Alzheimer’s disease––all those things will be set back enormously by what is happening. Chronic disease, the epidemic of obesity, Alzheimer’s, heart disease, stroke––all that scientific development research happens at NIH first. Drug companies come in and use the knowledge created by government research.” Joseph Feinglass is a research professor of medicine at Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine.

3. ==> Employment Expert Predicts Cloudy Summer Job Outlook

The labor market remains steady, but anticipated tariff impacts this summer may introduce new headwinds. As costs rise, employers who traditionally hire teens could pull back on summer hiring. Outplacement and executive coaching firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas, Inc. predicts teens will gain 1 million jobs in May, June, and July 2025. That would be the lowest number of summer jobs added for teens since 2010. “Over the last few summers, there were ample opportunities for teens, but they seemed to shun them,” says labor and workplace expert Andrew Challenger. “This summer, we may not see the opportunities manifest. With the current socio-political climate, we may see fewer tourists; with the expected impact of tariffs, we may see higher prices and lower consumer demand. Those who traditionally hire in the summer may hold off this year,” he adds. “It’s not just the economic uncertainty that may make teen jobs unavailable. Employers are using new technologies and automation for things the teen worker would have otherwise done. Teens are also competing with older workers who are keeping a toe in the workforce. And it remains true that teens often have competing interest that keep them from working,” he says. Challenger can discuss what types of job are available for teens and the best way to find the right job.

4. == > The Secret Missionaries Who Fought Deadly Gangs

In the face of gang violence, broken justice systems, and government collapse, who protects the most vulnerable? Journalist Ross Halperin tells the remarkable true story of two men—a U.S. sociologist and a Honduran educator—who launched a covert justice initiative in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Central America. What makes their story different? It wasn’t funded by the government. It wasn’t led by foreign NGOs. It was rooted in faith-based conviction and community trust—and it worked. Halperin’s new book, “Bear Witness: A Crusade for Justice in a Violent Land,” reveals how these leaders brought murderers to justice, protected victims, and restored hope in a place where crime once reigned. Ask him: Why do community-led justice efforts often succeed where governments fall short? What do deported immigrants face when returning to regions abandoned by the state? How are grassroots efforts rewriting the script on public safety? Ross Halperin started reporting this story in 2018 and has since spent much of his time in Honduras.

7. ==> Delayed Gratification Expert: How This Surprisingly Simple Habit Leads to Lasting Success

Why do so many smart, hardworking people still feel stuck, scattered or unfulfilled? According to Emilio Justo, the real problem isn’t effort—it’s timing. A two-time international TEDx speaker (with over 10.5 million views) and bestselling author of “The Power of Pause,” Justo reveals how mastering the habit of delayed gratifica¬tion—the ability to pause before reacting—can dramatically improve focus, resilience and achievement. Studies show that people who master delayed gratification are more likely to succeed in school, earn more money and maintain healthier relationships. In fact, the famous Stanford Marshmallow Experiment found that children who could delay gratification were more likely to thrive academically, professionally and personally as adults. Drawing from his journey as a Cuban refugee who became a renowned surgeon and entrepreneur, Justo delivers a rare mix of heart, science and actionable wisdom that resonates with audiences of all backgrounds.

12. ==> The Truth About Raising Resilient Kids

Today’s kids have more stressors and fear triggers than ever, including constant exposure to social and other media, bullying, intense pressure to excel at everything, and more. In addition, modern society often sends the message that today’s kids are fragile. According to Jack Gindi, that is our biggest mistake. “Real resilience isn’t built by avoiding pain or by force and struggle,” he says. “It’s built by teaching kids how to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and grace.” This conviction led him to found the I Believe in Me program, which provides kids and parents with practical tools for building self-esteem, managing emotions, and setting achievable goals. Jack can discuss how his own troubled childhood—which included molestation—and his experiences as a father of four and grandfather of six led him to create this program. He can also share details about how to enable today’s kids to become more resilient. Contact Jack Gindi at (719) 751-8807; jgindi@rtirguests.com

15. ==> Has Christianity Abandoned God’s Commands? This Author Says Yes

Churches across the world preach love for God—but are they ignoring what that love requires: obedience to His original commandments? In his thought-provoking book “Following Christ: Rediscovering the Jewish Faith of Jesus,” religious scholar Harry Buerer makes a bold claim. He says modern Christian¬ity has strayed from God’s instructions, abandoning practices given through Moses including keeping the Sabbath, observing biblical festivals and honoring dietary laws. Buerer, a seminary-trained Bible scholar and longtime church leader, argues that Jesus and his earliest followers upheld these teachings—and that Gentile Christians were never meant to reject them. His insights challenge centuries of tradition and invite believers to take a fresh look at what it really means to love and obey God. This is a conversation that will stir hearts, spark debate, and encourage deeper biblical reflection. Contact Harry Buerer at (503) 388-9245; hbuerer@rtirguests.com

1. ==> China and U.S. Temporarily Rollback Tariffs

The United States and China will reduce tariffs on each other’s goods for ninety days while they continue trade talks. “Beijing realized that, if the tariff tension hikes up, American shelves are going to run out of stuff, American factories are going to run out of the intermediary input. And you started to see the pressure bubbling up in the United States as well,” explains China expert Zongyuan Zoe Liu of the Council on Foreign Relations. “The Chinese officials have said there is not going to be a winner from the trade war, and they know that they cannot win from the trade war. Not just because of shrinking exports, but also because of pressure on the stability of the currency and domestic stability from unemployment.” Under the current agreement, the United States will drop its main tariff level on Chinese imports from 145 percent to 30 percent, and China will reduce its duties on U.S. goods from 125 percent to 10 percent. Zongyuan Zoe Liu is Maurice R. Greenberg senior fellow for China studies at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). Contact her at zliu@cfr.org

2. ==> U.S. Welcomes White South African Refugees

Months after the Trump administration ground U.S. refugee admissions to a halt, suspending a program that lets in thousands of people fleeing war or political persecution, it has restarted the effort — but only for one group: White South Africans. A group of 49 white Afrikaners arrived at Dulles airport on Monday on a charter flight paid for by the U.S. government. But many, including the South African government, are puzzled by the move and say the group is not being persecuted. “The idea that there were refugees who had been identified, vetted, who had spent years as refugees, and their hopes for admission to the United States after years of suffering had been crushed, that now the one exception would be made for Afrikaners just seems like a cruel twist to those refugees to whom the door was closed in their face,” says Bill Frelick, director of Human Rights Watch’s Refugee and Migrant Rights program. The resettlement effort comes after President Trump signed an executive order in February claiming minority Afrikaners were being unfairly treated in South Africa. The South Africans will now have a pathway to U.S. citizenship and be eligible for government benefits. Bill Frelick is director of Human Rights Watch's Refugee and Migrant Rights Division.

3. ==> The Rise of the Israel-Skeptic Washington Wing 

During his first major overseas trip of his second term, President Donald Trump is visiting Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE—skipping Israel entirely. This omission, along with direct U.S. talks with Hamas and potential nuclear deals with Saudi Arabia that don’t require normalization with Israel, has alarmed Israeli officials who once saw Trump as their strongest U.S. ally. The mood in Jerusalem is reportedly one of anxiety and disillusionment, with former officials describing it as “total panic.” Critics say Trump is sidelining Israel’s concerns in favor of pursuing U.S. economic interests and disengaging from broader Middle East conflicts. Middle East Expert Asaf Romirowsky is available to discuss the rise of an Israel-skeptic wing in Washington and the challenges that poses. Asaf Romirowsky is the executive director of Scholars for Peace in the Middle East. Trained as a Middle East historian he holds a PhD in Middle East and Mediterranean Studies from King’s College London, UK and has published widely on various aspects of the Arab-Israeli conflict and American foreign policy in the Middle East, as well as on Israeli and Zionist history.

4. ==> After 250 Years, Do We Need an Official Language?

According to linguist Ross Perlin, President Donald Trump’s Executive Order making English “the official language of the United States,” sends a negative signal about the many languages that make up this nation’s greatness. He says the move is the polar opposite of what our society, one of the most linguistically diverse in history, is and has always been about. He also points out that the order doesn’t just target foreign languages, it also attacks the hundreds of Native American languages at the core of the nation. And while it doesn’t ban languages other than English, Perlin says it sends an unprecedented official signal that they are not welcome. So how should Americans respond? “The decree reflects a profound weakness, anxiety and insecurity—but it also presents an opening. By challenging it, we can reassert linguistic diversity as one of America’s most fundamental realities and strongest assets. In other words: Speak up or be told what and how to speak—and think.” Ross Perlin is a linguist, translator and author of “Language City: The Fight to Preserve Endangered Mother Tongues in New York.” Contact him at (212) 854-3941; rap2179@columbia.edu
